Configuring Océ Publisher 2.0
Earlier versions of Océ Publisher 2.0 would not work properly with multipage PDF and DWF files. We worked with Océ to allow single page processing of PDF and DWF files if you click on just a single page so please make sure that you are using version 2.5.4 or later versions of Océ Publisher 2.0.
Although AcroPlot Repro can configure Océ Publisher 2.0 software through the AcroPlot Repro Setup dialog, you may manually configure it yourself also if you would like. You can also view the following Océ Technical Bulletin which is a similar setup for Océ Publisher 2.0 as it is for Océ Reprodesk 2.0.
The standard command line call to use AcroPlot Repro if it is installed in the default location is:
On 32 bit systems
C:\Program Files\AcroPlotRepro\AcroPlotRepro.exe -r400x400 -sOutputFile="%d\%06d.tiff" "%f"
On 64 bit systems
C:\Program Files\AcroPlotRepro (x86)\AcroPlotRepro.exe -r400x400 -sOutputFile="%d\%06d.tiff" "%f"
If you would like to perform the conversion at a different resolution you can change the -r400x400 to:
-r150x150
-r200x200
-r300x300
-r400x400
-r600x600
Additionally you can add some of the command line parameters found in the Calling from the Command Line->Command Line Parameters section of the help. The valid parameters to use are -dDitherType, -dRemoveWhiteSpace, -dAdjustStroke, -dBrightness, -dMinLineWidth, -sPDFPassword, -dDialogProgress, -dDialogFont, and -dDialogErrors. It's best to place these between the -r and -sOutputFile parameters. As an example if you want to always use the AcroPlot Repro Enhanced Dithering 2 pattern and not remove the white space around the file the command line parameter would change to.
C:\Program Files\AcroPlotRepro (x86)\AcroPlotRepro.exe -r400x400 -dDitherType=11 -dRemoveWhiteSpace=0 -sOutputFile="%d\%06d.tiff" "%f"
To manually configure Océ Publisher
1.) In Océ Publisher use the Tools->Options menus.
2.) Then select the File Processing->External Preprocessing. Important Note. Due to changes internally in Océ Publisher you can no longer override the Ghostscript processing path on the File Processing->PDF Options, you must define it under the External Preprocessing.
3.) If you want to define AcroPlot Repro to process PDF files then either add in a PDF format for the External Preprocessing or if it already exists in the list use the Edit Button. Do the same for DWF files.
4.) Now enter the instruction string in the Command field for Oce Publisher.
The instruction string contains the location of the AcroPlotRepro.exe program as well as the switches Océ Publisher needs to process the PDF or DWF files on a page by page basis.
Below is a common path to the AcroPlot Repro program (you may have to change the path) and the additional switches Oce Publisher uses to process DWF files:
For the Monochrome command line use:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AcroPlotRepro\AcroPlotRepro.exe -r400x400-sDEVICE=tiffg4 -sOutputFile="%d\%06d.tiff" -dFirstPage=%p -dLastPage=%p "%f"
For the Color command line use:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AcroPlotRepro\AcroPlotRepro.exe -r400x400-sDEVICE=png16m -sOutputFile="%d\%06d.tiff" -dFirstPage=%p -dLastPage=%p "%f"
If you are using a 32 bit operating system then the path is likely:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AcroPlotRepro\AcroPlotRepro.exe
If you would like to perform the conversion at a different resolution you can change the -r400x400 to:
-r150x150
-r200x200
-r300x300
-r400x400
-r600x600
4.) In the “Output Directory” field of Océ Publisher you will need to select a directory to locate the temporary files during processing and conversion.
Typically Publisher will use an RDLDF directory in the user’s temp directory.
Below is a common path to where the temporary files would be located for the “Output directory”:
On Windows XP(SP3) the default is:
C:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Local Settings\Temp\RDLDF\
On Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 the default is:
C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Temp\RDLDF\
Where [USERNAME] is your username in Windows.
5.) Select the "OK" button to save the settings. Repeat the process to Add or Edit processing for DWF file types.
6.) To revert back to the Océ Publisher rendering you can Delete the PDF or DWF preprocessing settings.
